What do you know about Columbus who sailed the ocean blue in 1492…?
The primary outcome of Columbus’s voyage to the new world was the enslavement of hundreds of thousands of Native Americans and the pilfering of 45,000 tons of gold and silver (valued at £10 trillion in modern currency).—The History of the World Part 5—Age of Plunder, BBC (2018) Film Review by Dr. Stuart Bramhall
Looting, too? Well that’s not good. In 1492 Columbus, the real-life-slave trader-pirate, was capturing humans for Spain, and lands three boats in Hispaniola. (Carib People say Columbus, an Italian guy working for Spain, was lost at sea.)
It's INDIGENOUS PEOPLE'S DAY... (every day)
SO PLEASE take a moment to understand colonization and myths.
